"A Rare Day"

The first day I've taken completely off in almost a month.  I'm pretty sure it was the right decision, even if I only did it (or didn't do it), out of convenience.  You see I had an appointment with the Mayor that conflicted with the best time to go to the pool, and the Mayor won!  Not because he's the mayor mind you, but rather because he's also the wonderful gentleman who farms our few acres.

Like I said, it was the right time to have a day off, and yet I find it so hard.  I get quite anxious, and as ridiculous as it may seem, I also worry about not burning calories!!  I weigh about 10 pounds more than I should, and 15 more than my ideal weight.  And it's ever so slowly going in the wrong direction!  Of course the answer lies not in burning more calories, but rather in consuming less.  I have to get back into the game!!

One positive bit.  This morning at 3:38 am, I woke up for perhaps the 7th time!  This particular time I got up and swished and swallowed some of the magic numbing stuff, and after perhaps 15 minutes, fell back asleep....and slept for almost 3 hours straight!!

....and I hope I don't live as long as this guy as it will mess up my retirement planning....
